I think you could ask any one of our friends what brand Lou wears the most of and every one of them will say Brooks Brothers. His obsession with Randolph Engineering has NOTHING on Brooks. His favorite saying is, " I put the brother in Brooks." So I present to you the story of the Golden Fleece.
It all started when Lou needed clothes for his first job and he heard the Brooks was high quality yet affordable clothing. He walked into the store in Chestnut Hill, and he was ignored by several sales associates, and then along came David, a man who appreciates fine clothing as much as Lou.
If Brooks Brothers was karate, David is Lou's Sensei. He's been outfitting Lou for at least 12 years, and Lou is extremely loyal to David. Lou even bought David a watch this Christmas for all the years of amazing service.
I thought of all the things I could write about Lou's obsession. The fact that he tells everyone, Brooks Brother's made a coat for President Lincoln, or that he's been able to wear the same gaberdine pants for most of his career. That he has the history of BB's book, or that it's all he asks for, for Christmas, but then I thought. Let me just take some pictures of his closet.
